Please add recently started in individual categories I would like to only view recently started streams in the category I am in Not sift through Many I have no interest in just to eventually find one. It would be much easier to just watch the new beginning streams in the category I choose. without sifting through hundreds I have no interest in watching.I only watch about 5 categories yet when looking for a recently started stream I have to sortout many before finding one in my chosen category.It is now only in the main categories area the option should also be added in individual categories as well.…

Create a Caribbean section Good day Twitch. Caribbean users would like to get into the streaming market but due to a lot of factors it is very difficult to find other Caribbean streamers. I would like to suggest a section where Caribbean streamers and viewers can locate each other.
4 votesHi guys!
Great news! We’re excited to announce that we now have an option for “Caribbean” along with more than 350 additional tags.
For more information, you can take a look at our blog post at https://blog.twitch.tv/en/2021/05/26/celebrate-yourself-and-your-community-with-350-new-tags/
Please continue to share ideas and feedback you have to UserVoice!

Malaysia tag Hi, I hope you can add a new language option for Bahasa Malaysia for streaming because we do have a lot of streamers from here but we get kinda buried under English section.
Even add a "Malaysian" / "Malaysia" tag to filters would be really appreciated.
Thank you.

Super excited to let you guys know that we have a Malaysian tag on Twitch now!
Thank you so much for this feedback and please let us know if there are any other tags you would like to see on Twitch.

A Jackbox Category I believe that we need a Jackbox Category for all games owned by the Company Jackbox Games. Because if streamers are changing games - It can be a right pain to change the category every single change. If we had only one Category for Jackbox it would make life so much easier.

Can we have PC, Consoles and Controller Tags More games have options to use mouse & keyboard or controller. And some games mix PC players with Consoles players it's easier to find and filtering streamers

Just popping in to let you all know that we now have Controller, PC, PlayStation, Switch, and Xbox as tags on Twitch!
Thank you so much for this feedback and if there are any other specific consoles or tags you would like to see added please let us know!

Add tags for programming languages / genres With the growing software developer communities on Twitch, we would like to add some tags to help with discoverability. Please consider the following tags:
- Desktop Development
- Programming Language: C#
- Programming Language: C++
- Programming Language: F#
- Programming Language: Java
- Programming Language: JavaScript
- Programming Language: Python
- Programming Language: Rust
- Programming Language: PHP
- Unity
There may be more that we should consider, but this is a start. I'll defer to commenters for more tag ideas.

Allow seeing a full list of followed categories Currently it's impossible to find out which categories i've followed unless some of them are live. It's also not possible to see categories that are live if there are too many followed.
Having a way to see every followed category no matter if it's live or not would help with that.

Make a Tag for KPop Make a tag for Kpop, it is overdue. Twitch even got three Kpop groups to perform for Twitch Stream Aid: (G)I-DLE, Monsta X, and Stray Kids, but there is still no Kpop Tag!!!!

Programming should be a seperate category from Science & Technology Every time I am trying to find a programming or game development stream to watch (which is a very specific type of stream) I get lost in all the growing plants and raising chickens 24/7 streams. While on the other hand there are a lot of programming and or game development streams that really deserve their own category. Being a part of the live-coders community I feel that splitting science & technology in a more granular way would benefit everybody. Both in terms of search-ability and clarity.

Have a channel surf option to help with discovery Please consider a "channel surf" option under categories. The feature would work as so: the viewer clicks on a game, category, etc, and is presented with a list of streams. How do they know which one to choose? There is no way to easily "surf" through the channels to pick one which is appealing to you. There would be a "surf" button or similar which would open a viewer that will show a 10-15 second preview of the channels to the viewer, in the order in which they are currently displayed on the page per the viewer's sort option.

Separate games and IRL Instead of a blanket categories tab that has both games and IRL it would make so much more sense to have a separate tab for IRL and Creative categories. How it would look on the discover page.
Games Topics Channels
In addition when in the Games tab searchable tags should be limited to game genres.

Combine the 5 Phantasy Star Online categories The following titles are the original and ports/expansions of the same game:
* Phantasy Star Online
* Phantasy Star Online ver. 2 (expansion--note this is different than Phantasy Star Online 2 which is a different game and should be separate)
* Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II (port + expansion)
* Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II Plus (essentially just a patch!)
* Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst (port + expansion)I and a few other PSO streamers realized how many fellow streamers of this game we were never aware of because there are streams in each of…

Would love a way to prevent channels from cropping up in suggestions. I like that Twitch suggests new streamers for me similar to channels I already watch. Unfortunately, I have no way to prevent the ones I don't like from popping up in my suggestions again and again. I would really appreciate if there were some way I could mark a channel with a general "no thanks" in regards to future suggested streams. Namely, channels I've unfollowed for various reasons popping up there tends to get annoying.
1 voteHey there! So sorry for missing this, but you can now select the 3 dots under a recommended stream and select "Not Interested" to remove streams from your recommendations.
Hope this helps!

Trans tag request It is hard enough finding trans representation in our daily lives. With the LGBTQIA+ tag, one still needs to browse through channels and spend time in them to find trans streamers. A "trans" tag would help people searching for these communities.
12,417 votesToday we are rolling out 350+ tags, including the transgender tag, to provide you with more options on how you express yourself and your content, so that you can more easily connect with one another and build wonderful communities. We are really appreciative for all of the feedback around this topic (and other related suggestions).
We previously told you that we had a better solution to this request than adding the tag, and we were wrong. This has been one of the most popular requests we’ve heard, and the simple truth is that we should have done this sooner. In an effort to think carefully about how to best address this, we only made the situation more difficult. Again, thank you for helping us throughout this process in reevaluating our stance.
Please continue to share ideas and feedback you have to UserVoice, as well as any suggestions for additional tags…

Add "Belarusian" as language option in stream settings It would be great to have Belarusian language (would be written as "Беларуская") as one of the available options in "Stream Information".
No translation of the platform is not asked for, only the language to filter streams by.
Thanks in advance!

Just reaching out to let everyone know that we now have a Belarusian tag on Twitch for our Belarusian community.
Thank you so much for your feedback on this and please let us know if there are other tags you would like to see on Twitch.

Tag Request Is there a way to request a Tag for the new Tag system?
One of the best parts of the old community system was we had a Military Veteran Twitch Community.
Made it a great way to host/raid/watch fellow veterans stream.
So my question is would it be possible to get a "Military Veteran" Tag?5 votes -
hey, could we get rid of that annoying purple bar at the top or at least have the option to minimize it or something either that or just give us the option to opt out of the changes please

A "Recently Viewed" or "Continue watching" tab in the "Following" section I love the ability to resume a VOD or live > VOD playback so now what's missing to make this feature completely awesome is a way to go back to whatever you were watching.
A simple example would be to add a tab at the bottom of the "Following" view on iOS next to Activity / Channels / Videos / Games
Perhaps add "History" like a browsing history?
This would then show any VODs I have been watching recently. If I pick any of these, they will resume playing where I left them.
